Description

From the publisher:

In the third volume--reprinting every strip from 1951 and 1952--new and old characters are paired off. Breck Nazaire and Dr. Deen Wilderness return. Steve meets the lovely Duchess of Denver and the sadistic Fungo; gets assigned to Eel Island, where he encounters crusty Colonel Index and his not-so-blushing bride; is sent to protect a government secret at Maumee University, only to reconnect with Summer Olson and meet her mysterious friend, Kate Subjekt; and eventually gets caught in the deep woods with Miss Mizzou and Roy Himmerskorn before coming face to face yet again with not only Summer, but the Copperhead herself-Copper Calhoon!

Steve Canyon like you've never seen it before -- reproduced directly from Milton Caniff's personal set of syndicate proofs! For the first time: the definitive edition of the Steve Canyon newspaper strip by Milton Caniff featuring every Sunday in color and the daily strips in their original, uncropped versions.

This came from the library of Burny Mattinson (1935-2023), an animator, director, producer, and story artist for Walt Disney Animation Studios, from 1953 until his death in 2023. Mattinson directed Mickey's Christmas Carol and The Great Mouse Detective. He was named a Disney Legend in 2008 and was the longest serving employee of The Walt Disney Company, with a career that spanned almost 70 years. His extensive library included numerous subjects and especially large collections of books on Disney, animation, and classic comic strips.
